The Tempest. He's safe for these three houres. Fer. O most deere Mistris
[1215]
The Sun will set before I shall discharge What I must striue to do.
Mir. If you'l sit downe Ile beare your Logges the while: pray giue me that, Ile carry it to the pile. Fer.
[1220]
No precious Creature, I had rather cracke my sinewes, breake my backe, Then you should such dishonor vndergoe, While I sit lazy by.
Mir. It would become me
[1225]
As well as it do's you; and I should do it With much more ease: for my good will is to it, And yours it is against.
Pro. Poore worme thou art infected, This visitation shewes it. Mir.
[1230]
You looke wearily.
Fer. No, noble Mistris, 'tis fresh morning with me When you are by at night: I do beseech you Cheefely, that I might set it in my prayers, What is your name? Mir.
[1235]
Miranda, O my Father, I haue broke your hest to say so.
Fer. Admir'd Miranda, Indeede the top of Admiration, worth What's deerest to the world: full many a Lady
[1240]
I haue ey'd with best regard, and many a time Th'harmony of their tongues, hath into bondage Brought my too diligent eare: for seuerall vertues Haue I lik'd seuerall women, neuer any With so full soule, but some defect in her
[1245]
Did quarrell with the noblest grace she ow'd, And put it to the foile. But you, O you, So perfect, and so peerlesse, are created Of euerie Creatures best.
Mir. I do not know
[1250]
One of my sexe; no womans face remembe , Saue from my glasse, mine owne: Nor haue I seene More that I may call men, then you good friend, And my deere Father: how features are abroad I am skillesse of; but by my modestie
[1255]
(The iewell in my dower) I would not wish Any Companion in the world but you: Nor can imagination forme a shape Besides your selfe, to like of: but I prattle Something too wildely, and my Fathers precepts
[1260]
I therein do forget.
Fer. I am, in my condition A Prince ( Miranda) I do thinke a King (I would not so) and would no more endure This wodden slauerie, then to suffer
[1265]
The flesh‑flie blow my mouth: heare my soule speake. The verie instant that I saw you, did My heart flie to your seruice, there resides To make me slaue to it, and for your sake Am I this patient Logge‑man.
Mir.
[1270]
Do you loue me?
Fer. O heauen; O earth, beare witnes to this sound, And crowne what I professe with kinde euent If I speake true: if hollowly, inuert What best is boaded me, to mischiefe: I,
[1275]
Beyond all limit of what else i'th world Do loue, prize, honor you.
Mir. I am a foole To weepe at what I am glad of.

Right Column


Pro. Faire encounter
[1280]
Of two most rare affections: heauens raine grace On that which breeds betweene 'em.
Fer. VVherefore weepe you? Mir. At mine vnworthinesse, that dare not offer VVhat I desire to giue; and much lesse take
[1285]
VVhat I shall die to want: But this is trifling, And all the more it seekes to hide it selfe, The bigger bulke it shewes. Hence bashfull cunning, And prompt me plaine and holy innocence. I am your wife, if you will marrie me;
[1290]
If not, Ile die your maid: to be your fellow You may denie me, but Ile be your seruant VVhether you will or no.
Fer. My Mistris (deerest) And I thus humble euer. Mir.
[1295]
My husband then?
Fer. I, with a heart as willing As bondage ere of freedome: heere's my hand. Mir. And mine, with my heart in't; and now farewel Till halfe an houre hence. Fer.
[1300]
A thousand, thousand.
Exeunt. Pro. So glad of this as they I cannot be, VVho are surpriz'd with all; but my reioycing At nothing can be more: Ile to my booke, For yet ere supper time, must I performe
[1305]
Much businesse appertaining.
Exit.
Scœna Secunda. [Act 3, Scene 2] Enter Caliban, Stephano, and Trinculo. Ste.

Tell not me, when the But is out we will drinke

water, not a drop before; therefore beare vp, & boord

em' Seruant Monster, drinke to me.

Trin.
[1310]

Seruant Monster? the folly of this Iland, they

say there's but fiue vpon this Isle; we are three of them,

if th' other two be brain'd like vs, the State totters.

Ste.

Drinke seruant Monster when I bid thee, thy

eies are almost set in thy head.

[1315]

Trin.

VVhere should they bee set else? hee were a

braue Monster indeede if they were set in his taile.

Ste.

My man‑Monster hath drown'd his tongue in

sacke: for my part the Sea cannot drowne mee, I swam

[1320]

ere I could recouer the shore, fiue and thirtie Leagues

off and on, by this light thou shalt bee my Lieutenant

Monster, or my Standard.

Trin.

Your Lieutenant if you list, hee's no standard.

Ste.
[1325]

VVeel not run Monsieur Monster.

Trin.

Nor go neither: but you'l lie lik e dogs, and yet

say nothing neither.

Ste.

Moone‑calfe, speak once in thy life, if thou beest

a good Moone‑calfe.

Cal.
[1330]
How does thy honour? Let me licke thy shooe: Ile not serue him, he is not valiant.
Trin.

Thou liest most ignorant Monster, I am in case

to iustle a Constable: why, thou debosh'd Fish thou,

was there euer man a Coward, that hath drunk so much

[1335]

Sacke as I to day? wilt thou tell a monstrous lie, being

but halfe a Fish, and halfe a Monster?

Cal.

Loe, how he mockes me, wilt thou let him my

Lord?

Cal.

[1340]

a Naturall?

Cal.

Loe, loe againe: bite him to death I prethee.

Ste.

Trinculo, keepe a good tongue in your head: If

you proue a mutineere, the next Tree: the poore Mon­

ster's my subiect, and he shall not suffer indignity.

Cal.
[1345]

I thanke my noble Lord. Wilt thou be pleas'd

to hearken once againe to the suite I made to thee?

Ste. Marry will I: kneele, and repeate it, I will stand, and so shall Trinculo. Enter Ariell inuisible. Cal. As I told thee before, I am subiect to a Tirant,
[1350]
A Sorcerer, that by his cunning hath cheated me Of the Island.
Ariell. Thou lyest Cal. Thou lyest, thou iesting Monkey thou: I would my valiant Master would destroy thee.
[1355]
I do not lye.
Ste. Trinculo, if you trouble him any more in's tale, By this hand, I will supplant some of your teeth. Trin. Why, I said nothing. Ste. Mum then, and no more: proceed. Cal.
[1360]
I say by Sorcery he got this Isle From me, he got it. If thy Greatnesse will Reuenge it on him, (for I know thou dar'st) But this Thing dare not.
Ste. That's most certaine. Cal.
[1365]
Thou shalt be Lord of it, and Ile serue thee.
Ste. How now shall this be compast? Canst thou bring me to the party? Cal. Yea, yea my Lord, Ile yeeld him thee asleepe, Where thou maist knocke a naile into his head. Ariell.
[1370]
Thou liest, thou canst not.
Cal. What a py'de Ninnie's this? Thou scuruy patch: I do beseech thy Greatnesse giue him blowes, And take his bottle from him: When that's gone, He shall drinke nought but brine, for Ile not shew him
[1375]
Where the quicke Freshes are.
Ste.

Trinculo, run into no further danger:

Interrupt the Monster one word further, and by this

hand, Ile turne my mercie out o' doores, and make a

Stockfish of thee.

Trin.
[1380]
Why, what did I? I did nothing: Ile go farther off.
Ste. Didst thou not say he lyed? Ariell. Thou liest Ste. Do I so? Take thou that,
[1385]
As you like this, giue me the lye another time.
Trin. I did not giue the lie: Out o'your wittes, and hearing too? A pox o'your bottle, this can Sacke and drinking doo: A murren on your Monster, and the diuell take your fingers. Cal. Ha, ha, ha. Ste.
[1390]
Now forward with your Tale: prethee stand further off.
Cal. Beate him enough: after a little time Ile beate him too. Ste. Stand farther: Come proceede. Cal. Why, as I told thee, 'tis a custome with him
[1395]
I'th afternoone to sleepe: there thou maist braine him, Hauing first seiz'd his bookes: Or with a logge Batter his skull, or paunch him with a stake, Or cut his wezand with thy knife. Remember First to possesse his Bookes; for without them
[1400]
Hee's but a Sot, as I am; nor hath not One Spirit to command: they all do hate him As rootedly as I. Burne but his Bookes, He ha's braue Vtensils (for so he calles them) Which when he ha's a house, hee'l decke withall.
[1405]
And that most deeply to consider, is The beautie of his daughter: he himselfe Cals her a non‑pareill: I neuer saw a woman But onely Sycorax my Dam, and she; But she as farre surpasseth Sycorax,
[1410]
As great'st do's least
Ste. Is it so braue a Lasse? Cal. I Lord, she will become thy bed, I warrant, And bring thee forth braue brood. Ste.

Monster, I will kill this man: his daughter and

[1415]

I will be King and Queene, saue our Graces: and Trin­ culo and thy selfe shall be Vice‑royes:

Dost thou like the plot Trinculo?

Trin. Excellent. Ste. Giue me thy hand, I am sorry I beate thee:
[1420]
But while thou liu'st keepe a good tongue in thy head.
Cal. Within this halfe houre will he be asleepe, Wilt thou destroy him then? Ste. I on mine honour. Ariell. This will I tell my Master. Cal.
[1425]
Thou mak'st me merry: I am full of pleasure, Let vs be iocond. Will you troule the Catch You taught me but whileare?
Ste. At thy request Monster, I will do reason, Any reason: Come on Trinculo, let vs sing. Sings.
[1430]
Flout'em, and cout'em: and skowt'em, and flout'em, Thought is free.
Cal. That's not the tune. Ariell plaies the tune on a Tabor and Pipe. Ste. What is this same? Trin. This is the tune of our Catch, plaid by the pic­ ture of No‑body. Ste.
[1435]
If thou beest a man, shew thy selfe in thy likenes: If thou beest a diuell, take't as thou list.
Trin. O forgiue me my sinnes. Ste. He that dies payes all debts: I defie thee; Mercy vpon vs. Cal.
[1440]
Art thou affeard?
Ste. No Monster, not I. Cal. Be not affeard, the Isle is full of noyses, Sounds, and sweet aires, that giue delight and hurt not: Sometimes a thousand twangling Instruments
[1445]
Will hum about mine eares; and sometime voices, That if I then had wak'd after long sleepe, Will make me sleepe againe, and then in dreaming, The clouds methought would open, and shew riches Ready to drop vpon me, that when I wak'd
[1450]
I cri'de to dreame againe.
Ste. This will proue a braue kingdome to me, Where I shall haue my Musicke for nothing. Cal. When Prospero is destroy'd. Ste. That shall be by and by:
[1455]
I remember the storie.
Trin. The sound is going away, Lets follow it, and after do our worke. Ste. Leade Monster, Wee'l follow: I would I could see this Taborer,
[1460]
He layes it on.
Trin. Wilt come? Ile follow stephano. Exeunt.
